Bringing Up Baby

When Will I Be Able To Exhale?

Even on the days I get a lot done, I still feel like me to-do list is endless!

Today, for example, I've already gone to the grocery store, done three loads of laundry, and written four blog posts. (Phew!) At the rate I'm going, I should have time to write three more posts and get to the gym before picking up Emmett from his nanny share.

Once we're home, I'll feed him dinner and two more bottles, then put him to bed. Then I can relax with a glass of wine—while I send out invoices and contact sources for two stories that I'm writing.

I guess part of the reason I'm always busy is my job—I have one post here and four posts here every weekday. That's a lot of deadlines!

And even on the weekends, I never manage to feel caught up. There's always laundry that needs to be washed (always!), floors that could be mopped, and toys that should be put away.

When will I be able to exhale? Or should I just assume I won't be able to relax until Emmett's in college?!
